OOR healing is such a minor issue imo... If it happens, deal with it. The unexpected is what makes EQ pvp so much better than lets say WoW pvp...

Rogean thank you for asking our input... Wish there was a more definitive answer.

+-4 is way too small of a pvp range. Having a group ranging from 26-30 being unable to engage a group of 32-35's due to half your grp being OOR is a game breaker. I can only imagine that the people who want +-4 are more solo players that want a better balanced 1v1 atmosphere because any team/group player will hate this level range. I could write 50 scenarios where half a grp is in range but is left impotent because the guys you're going against will just rape the people in range and be left at a stalemate staring at you. I hope you don't listen to the QQ's of the noobs and understand that most of the griefing going on during beta currently are just dynamic pvp system bugs.

+/- 8 levels and 1-50 Pvp in Solb, Perma, and Kedge. this is dynamic enough imo

This is why Sullon Zek was the best PvP server. You didn't have a narrow range, and you had dedicated teams that to me made more sense than Tallon and Vallon. If this was going to be a Sullon Zek server I'd play there in a heartbeat; FFA PvP was a mess with the game clearly not designed for it.

That's why they changed the Sullon Zek rules slightly [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] That guy is legendary but man it was game-breaking, which is why I say no matter what rules they implement here, people will find a way around them.

GO GO GOOD TEAM!

+/-4 is necessary at lower levels, but at high levels it's too narrow. So what about +/-4 and certain high level zones have no range? I don't want to see level 8-12 people running around newbie zones wreaking havoc. 8 levels is an enormous difference at low levels. The difference between level 1 and 9, or 12 and 20, is huge. Too huge.

Yes and no. I think 8 level range is fine, but I remember on live every player in your range conned the same to you. I'd like a system like this so there's some uncertainty and you can't just exclusively "pvp" against people who con blue or green.

Imo you can't really judge the 8 lvl range fairly due to the resist system being so borked on beta. Would need the next patch to be in place to evaluate it fairly.

He has a point with this.

The level range will need to be tested with a proper resist system in place, first.

Conjecture without resists working is worthless.

I have a feeling none of these things are getting changed so I'll just have the I told you so warm and ready. Can we start implementing balances to things on the blue server now? I mean there's lots of things that SHOULD be changed to make things better. For instance, making mobs immune to other players when they don't have first to engage. I think that would be a good start.

If this isn't a good troll, you should be banned.

Eq is about choice. Limiting options is wrong.

People like Nirgom being able to vote is ruining everything.
